AI and photo filters lead to people becoming boring-looking
The actress, who stars in forthcoming film The Naked Gun, said she feels 'freedom' in walking a red carpet without make-up on.
She told Harper's Bazaar: 'I think that with AI technology and filters, people are becoming kind of boring-looking. I want to challenge beauty norms. I've always been a rebel.
'It's freedom to know you can walk on a red carpet without a stitch of make-up on. I mean, why can't I? Men do it all the time.'
Anderson, whose career has been experiencing a resurgence in recent years, appears in The Naked Gun reboot alongside Irish actor Liam Neeson – due to be released this summer.
'It's going to show a different side of me,' she told the magazine.
'I feel every film I do lately is healing various parts of me. And you need a big, messy life to draw from if you want to make these kinds of things interesting.'
She went on: 'I love being in a creative space. That's my happy place. I love poetry, film and music, and I feel like I'm just trying to live this part of my life as authentically as possible.
'I don't know what my next incarnation will be, but right now, I want to peel it back. Clean up a little bit and just see: who am I?'
Anderson, who was a Playboy model before being propelled to fame in her role as lifeguard CJ Parker in Baywatch in the 1990s, has two sons with ex-husband Tommy Lee.
In 2022, her private life was shone under the spotlight once again, with the TV series Pam & Tommy dramatising their whirlwind romance.
Anderson made her Broadway debut playing Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago in 2022, and last year she starred in film The Last Showgirl, which led to her being nominated for a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild award.
Anderson, who appears on the cover of the July/August issue of Harper's Bazaar, told the magazine: 'I feel like because I've been given this second chance – not everybody gets one – I get to do it my way.'
Harper's Bazaar UK is on sale from June 19.

Kneecap greeted by hundreds at court as rap group member faces terrorism charge
Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, is accused of displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig in November last year. The 27-year-old arrived at court on Wednesday with the other two members of the Belfast trio – Naoise O Caireallain, and J J O Dochartaigh. Kneecap said London had been 'plastered' with messages of support before the hearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, with a billboard displaying the words 'more blacks, more dogs, more Irish, Mo Chara' seen in the Lambeth area. O hAnnaidh is due to appear in court following an alleged incident during a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London. The charge O hAnnaidh faces alleges he displayed a flag in a public place, 'in such a way or in such circumstances as to arouse reasonable suspicion that he is a supporter of a proscribed organisation' – namely Hezbollah. Kneecap described the prosecution as a 'witch hunt' in a post on X on Tuesday evening. A huge scrum of their hundreds of supports greeted them as they slowly made their way to the entrance of the court building. The band were wearing 'Free Mo Chara' T-shirts. Supporters gathered outside the court building from early in the morning, holding placards saying 'Free Mo Chara' and 'Defend Kneecap'. A mixture of Palestinian and Kneecap flags were being held by some of the crowd, and cheers were heard after an ad van drove past displaying the slogan 'More Blacks, More Dogs, More Irish, Mo Chara'. Austrian Alexandra Kennedy, who had travelled from her home country to show support, said: 'I think that Kneecap are important to so many people that if Liam Og O hAnnaidh gets a heavy sentence, then maybe people will lose something, they need the connection to Kneecap.' Copywriter Victoria Ashworth travelled from her home in Brighton with her daughter Lily to attend the protest. Ms Ashworth, 53, said: 'I just feel like the charges are utterly ridiculous. I believe in freedom of speech.' Police removed a pro-Israel protester who walked into the crowd wearing an Israeli flag which prompted boos, swearing and shouts of 'free Palestine'. The crowd became animated and shouted 'Israel is a terrorist state' and 'take him out for his own safety' as he made gestures and argued with protesters. Police surrounded the man as the crowd moved towards him, with protesters cheering as he was removed. The Metropolitan Police said the force had charged O hAnnaidh, who appears on the court list as Liam O'Hanna, after initially being made aware of a video from the gig at the O2 Forum which had been posted online. In a separate event shortly after the terrorism charge, O hAnnaidh could be seen in social media videos entering the stage with tape covering his mouth. The Met previously said Kneecap were under investigation after clips posted online appeared to show the band calling for the deaths of MPs and shouting 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah'. The rap trio said they have 'never supported' Hamas or Hezbollah, both of which are banned in the UK.
